Vino a nadar la playa entre mis rocas,

El mar me ha contemplado ola tras ola,

El barco ha timoneado mi carcasa

Y escucha mi rumor la caracola.

El calor se despoja de mi lana,

La oveja me trasquila en cada estío,

Mi padre bebe de mi vino brusco

Y mi madre se cuelga de mi avío.

Un caballo y su espuela me cabalgan,

Un camino me pisa diariamente,

Los zapatos del polvo me han hollado

Y el sol me considera un inclemente.

La tierra ha preparado mi piel llana,

El arado me surca embravecido,

El trigo ha dispersado mis semillas

Y el pan con diente claro me ha mordido.

Un caballo y su espuela me cabalgan,

Un camino me pisa diariamente,

Los zapatos del polvo me han hollado

Y el sol me considera un inclemente

Que quema con sus rayos a la gente.

El frío hace un chamanto con mi sangre,

La boca de un aullido me proclama,

La casa que me habita no me barre

Y sobre mi extensión duerme una cama.

La puerta me golpea en busca de alguien,

La lágrima me enjuga en dos pañuelos,

Un espejo se mira en mis ultrajes

Y hay un libro que lee en mi desvelo.

Un celaje contempla mi caída,

El malhechor comenta mi mal paso,

Un país me ha buscado sobre el mapa

Y no ha encontrado nunca el menor trazo

Y esa herida me venda la amargura

Y la muerta se duerme entre mis brazos.
